Tapirus

Hailing from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, Dutch artist, Tapirus a.k.a Charlton Ravenberg is
no stranger to the dance music scene. Having recorded 2 singles this past year for Midnight Shift and Mord Records as Charlton, now reemerges with new single on U.S. imprint, Emphasis! “Enlightenment” is an ethereal jacking track, taking inspiration from the Dutch and Detroit techno of yesteryear. Shuffling 707+808+909 drum sounds underneath melancholic synth pad. A string solo plays gingerly on top, sending the listener into deep space! Finishing off side A, is
“What Do You Recon,” a bubbling, burbling acid track; twisting and warping minds on the dance floor.
“Had To Walk Away Girl,” because sometimes you just have to. It’s not about you! Dutch techno at it’s finest here. Acid bassline tweaking underneath solo synth line that meanders through the ebb and flow of your thoughts. Rounding out the single is “Specific Epithet,” which conjures up dark, wide spaces in the mind with it’s eerie synth solo and low synth bass stabs.
